Chloroaluminate melts can be used as electrolytes for the production of aluminum and they are also involved in high energy density batteries (“Zebra” battery) : Na/βAl2O3/NaAlCl4, FeCl2, Fe. Molten chlorides have many other industrial applications. For example, transitionmetal chlorides are involved in the hot corrosion of metallic alloys. They are also used in the production of magnesium by electrolysis : the electrolyte is NaCl-KClMgCl2-CaCl2 and the transition-metal chlorides (mostly MnCl2 and FeCl2) are dissolved impurities.
